I have added this page to enable readers to have the opportunity to visit the websites of some of my fellow authors around the world. The list begins with my friends Graeme S Houston, in Malaysia, and Ed Cook in the USA. I hope you pay their websites a visit one day and enjoy reading their information.
Graeme S Houston
http://www.stargazer-publishing.com/graeme_s_houston
Graeme S. Houston was born in Scotland. He studied Psychology in Kilmarnock, I.T. in Edinburgh, and toyed with the prospect of working in the field of Artificial Intelligence. But then, it looked a bit risky - who wants to go down in history as the idiot who inadvertently makes mankind redundant? Instead he turned to writing. At first he created content for magazines, both freelance and in-house. Then he turned to fiction - because it is the most fun, and the purest form of the art of writing - and he loves creating veritable worlds within worlds.
He finished his first novel, ‘The Binary Concord’, last year and is now working on a second novel entitled ‘Historica’. Between novels, he wrote a number of short stories, across almost all genres and now continues to produce the occasional short story between chapters of his larger work.
He spends much of his time in Malaysia, with his lovely Malaysian wife, or exploring the neighboring countries with her. He enjoys the warm weather despite the fact he never developed much of a tan, and believe it or not (ironic for a scotsman) finds 23 degrees celcius rather chilly.
His story ‘Dr. Razamuth’ will be appearing in a Malaysian anthology (yet to be titled), very soon. Another of his stories, ‘Birdsong’, is due for publication in Peccary Magazine. His favourite piece so far, ‘The Unregistered Daydreamer’, will be appearing in Forgotten Worlds in the near future.
